Description

  • The object of the multifunctional penile extender is a system that by combining two interrelated devices, such as silicone band and a support for the top of the penis; wherein with some novel features, it is possible to improve the comfortability of use and increase the functions and indications of use for the system against the systems described in the state of the art.
  • STATE OF THE PRIOR ART
  • The document EP1473000 describes a device for the treatment of genital hypoplasia comprising: an external genital fixation to ensure the glans to the device; an internal fixation system and a dynamometric system for tissue expansion and that is characterized in that comprises a silicone ring placed severally attached to a superior support and also comprises a protection system of the glans.
  • This document describes a penis enlargement system by traction and that, in order to improve the comfort of use, comprises a conventional silicone band in combination with a protection element, typically a pad or similar. However, the pad is a separate element of the band, which deteriorates over time, and as the wear occurs, exerts its function worse. Similarly, the silicone ring is essentially cylindrical offering a high pressure per cm2 when transmits the traction force of these systems over the contact area on the penis. Clearly, as the wear in the pads occurs, the feeling of discomfort in the use of the device will increase, causing frictions and irritation in the member. At this point, it must be had in mind that these types of devices, in order to be effective, must be placed an average of 8 hours daily in the penis, being this period large enough so that the pad, always in the same position and pressured by the silicone ring, adopts an undesirable form, sufficiently tight enough on the contact zone of the silicone ring to cause a friction or irritation balano-preputial sulcus. These problems are generally applicable to any system that uses bands or rings made of silicone or similar material, whose structure is essentially cylindrical, as the document EP 2153805 , WO9728764 and WO9626691 .
  • Another present document in the state of the art is ES2281639T3 which describes a supporting ring of the penis that is substantially flat and exerts its function as a clip on the area immediately below the glans. More specifically, that supporting ring is described as a fixing means the formed by an essentially cylindrical component and which comprises, wholly or partially, elastically the respective part of the body with a retaining clip, which, after placement of the fixing means can be blocked into the side on the periphery of the stretching rod. This system, as mentioned, is similar to the used by the ring clips. Similarly, its constitution completely flat as a whole implies that for its union with the support of the penis, it depends on the position of the flange. At this point it is noted that a cylindrical adjustable union at any point by the user is the best solution. In the described system, the comfort depends on the setting of the flanges. It is a known fact that each member is of a certain thickness and does not respond to default patterns, then for a perfect fit, the use of preset flanges is not a universal optimal solution, but there may be users where their perfect fit is between two adjacent positions of the flanges. Also the transmission of traction force is not performed on the whole surface of the clip but only in its upper edge. Said upper edge contacts with the corona of the glans, where it abuts, and transmits the traction force with a high pressure per cm2 over the contact area with the penis. Another document that describes a similar system is the EP 1878410 .
  • All documents mentioned are relates to penis enlargement devices or systems by traction and essentially consist of a circular base, where the penis is inserted, and where said base is housed in the area close to the lower base of the penis. From said base ring emanate parallel both metal rods with different particularities and functions in terms of traction, which are joined at the top by a bridge element, which is also support of the penis at its top, in contact with the base of the glans. This bridge or support element generally has the particularity of being of plastic material and including anchoring means for a silicone band, usually a couple of through holes adapted to accommodate the ends of said band, as well as anchoring or adjustment means for of the band to the back of said bridge element. This configuration lacks flexibility, which in turn results in lack of comfort in daily use. While the shape of the bridge, "U-shaped", so that the penis rests in a concave region of the element, is known in the state of the art, in all reviewed cases, the through holes are symmetrical in relation to the vertical axis of symmetry of the element, since its primary function in all cases is to exercise the penis traction. However, and as it has been reviewed, in order to improve comfort of use must be taken into account that each member has a specific shape, which in some cases may results in disorder and must be taken into account to improve such comfort. Thus, in a device of this type, a member with certain degree of lateral deviation will suffer much more pressure from one side than the other, resulting obviously in a clear lack of comfort.
  • There are also treatment limitations due to be designed said piece only with two holes and also be both located in a short distance and at the top of the piece. Said limitation always makes that the traction force will be exerted on a vertical axis parallel to the shaft of the penis. Said axis of this parallel traction force would not be indicated when the penis presents a deviation, since the force applied on the side of the curvature must be greater than the force applied on the side with the lesser curvature. This lack of adaptation to the axis of the curved penises makes that these previous systems have not solved the problem of treatment of curved penises which have a deviated axis, being the previous systems clearly insufficient to treat these cases.
  • Also these prior systems have the limitation of being the two holes from the upper piece located on top of the piece. This situation limits the possibilities for the treatment of micropenis whose length is not enough to be embraced by the silicone band, because they are located on top of said piece.
  • Furthermore the small distance between the holes from the upper piece limits and makes impossible the use of these systems in penises that have been recently operated since the bandage substantially increases the thickness of the penis bandaged, not being able to embrace the penis by silicone band in these cases where it is necessary to apply a traction force after urological surgeries involving a penile shortening as a side effect. Document WO 2010/042813 discloses a penile compression device comprising a band having a flat central portion. Document DE 19618352 is considered the closest prior art and discloses a penis traction system having a concave penis support device with through holes and a penis fastening device consisting of a flexible, elastic material. Document US 2009/247377 discloses a device similar to DE 19618352 .
